To meet the criteria for prospective students, students must prepare a final assignment or thesis before the end of the study session and submit it according to the specified deadline. Students have to spend a lot of time studying in front of laptops because of the demands of their final assignments. This increases the risk of musculoskeletal disease, including neck discomfort. The aim of this study was to investigate whether students' sitting duration was associated with complaints of neck pain. The research strategy used in this research is cross-sectional correlational analysis. The population of this study was 126 students in the final stages of study at STIKES Ngudia Husada Madura, with a total sample of 93 participants. A person's sitting duration acts as an independent variable in this study, while complaints of neck pain are a related variable. A questionnaire was used as a data collection tool, the results of which were analyzed using the Lambda test with a significance level of 0.05. Among the students surveyed, 74.2% (69 people) reported sitting for more than four hours. Of the students surveyed, 90.3% (or 84 people) reported experiencing neck pain. The significance threshold of lambda ? (0.05) was exceeded by the statistical test findings, which showed a p value of 0.016. Final year students at STIkes Ngudia Husada Madura reported more neck pain when they sat for long periods of time, according to the study. There is a moderate relationship between differences in sitting duration and pain complaints as indicated by a correlation coefficient of 0.472. It is hoped that STIKes Ngudia Husada Madura students will be required to always change their seating positions. Sitting for four hours in a row can cause neck pain, so get up and move as soon as possible. Apart from that, students can try to gently stretch the neck muscles to reduce the discomfort that may be the cause.References
